Chapter 17(1/2)
Xu Yu was happy to take on a new show and did not notice anything was wrong.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements for you!"
When Yu Xian went back, he did not go home directly, but instead rang the doorbell of Cen Nian's house.
As soon as the door opened, he spoke seriously: "Hello, Cen, I am Yu Xian. I am honored to hear about the cooperation of the new drama."
Seeing him acting so seriously, Cen Nian couldn't help laughing.
She guessed that he must have received the news from his agent, so she smiled and said, "I didn't find you because I knew you. I spent a lot of effort on this work, and the requirements for the protagonist are undoubtedly higher. I watched your previous work, and the speed of acting improvement surprised me."
Yu Xian pursed his lips: "Sister is really fair."
"Otherwise," Cen Nian raised her eyebrows and said, "Can I really let you act in my work just because I know you?"
"Sister is so ruthless." Yu Xian snorted to express his dissatisfaction.
Seeing that he was angry, Cen Nian softened his tone: "But the first thing I thought of was you, and I have pushed all the other actors away."
After saying this, Yu Xian's mood really improved.
Cen Nian continued, "If you don't want to act, I guess this work may have to be put on hold for a while because it's too difficult to find a candidate." She paused, "There are too few that suit me."
"I'm very much in line with my sister's wishes?" Yu Xian asked with a smile on his face.
Cen Nian naturally did not deny this, "Yes."
Yu Xian's lips slowly raised a curve. He stared at Cen Nian for a long time, but it seemed that he couldn't see enough.
Cen Nian was a little uncomfortable when he stared at him, so he asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"Actually, I have always wanted to work with my sister, and I also like my sister's works." Yu Xian pursed his lips.
He was jealous of Pei Hangyi. His debut work was Cen Nian's male supporting role, and then he continued to play the male lead. There were so many rumors in the circle that he didn't believe it, but it was worth his jealousy just because Pei Hangyi and Cen Nian collaborated twice.
Cen Nian smiled: "See you tomorrow."

On the second day, Xu Yu made an appointment with the script negotiation location in a five-star hotel private room.
Tong Tong came to drive Cen Nian to the hotel. She had just learned that Yu Xian was going to star in "Twins", and she was so excited that she wanted to scream in the car.
"Really? Sister Nian Nian, you are not lying to me, right?" Tong Tong couldn't believe it, "Have you really decided to let Yu Xian play it?"
"This is not the right way to talk." Cen Nian smiled faintly, "You can follow in with you and get familiar with him."
Tong Tong's cheeks turned red, and her heart as a fan suddenly became restless, but she immediately shook her head: "No, I can't affect Sister Nian Nian's work just because I am a fan."
Cen Nian chuckled: "What has it affected?"
"I know how much Sister Nian Nian has paid for this work, so naturally she must be rigorous and fair in casting." Tong Tong said, "What should I do if I am affected at that time."
Cen Nian didn't know whether to sigh at Tong Tong's innocence or kindness. Since he could have a separate interview, it was almost a foregone conclusion. Why did this silly girl still remember her?
"Do you want to take a photo with Yu Xian?" Cen Nian asked with a smile, "Why I'll give you a look when the time comes."
In normal times, Tong Tong didn't dare to think about it, so she felt a little dazed now: "Is it really OK?"
"Of course." Cen Nian nodded.
When they arrived at the hotel private room, Yu Xian and Xu Yu had already come here first.
"Hello, hello," Xu Yu smiled when he saw Cen Nian come in, "I didn't expect that just mentioned this matter yesterday, Cen was willing to meet us. We are looking forward to this cooperation."
Cen Nian smiled: "I'm looking forward to it too."
Her eyes passed by Xu Yu and fell on Yu Xian, who was sitting on the chair not far away. Today he wore a camel coat and a white turtleneck sweater inside. His appearance was extremely attractive.
When Xu Yu saw Yu Xian still sitting there, his heart skipped a beat and hurriedly pulled him over to say hello to Cen Nian.
"Yu Xian recognized his life a little." Xu Yu smiled and wrapped it.
Cen Nian raised his eyebrows gently, and the word "Recognition" may not be suitable for Yu Xian.
She also introduced Tong Tong next to her at this time: "This is my assistant Tong Tong."
Tong Tong didn't dare to look at Yu Xian at all. Xu Yu, who is a discerning person, could see it all at once. After all, Yu Xian has a lot of fans.
"Hello, you guys..." Tong Tong greeted him in a low voice, and then said to Cen Nian: "Sister Nian Nian, I'll go out first!"
She had never imagined that she had to go out and calm down.
Seeing Tong Tong run away, Cen Nian was also stunned.
She smiled and said, "Sorry, my assistant happens to be Yu Xian's fan, so she is a little nervous."
"It's okay." Yu Xian responded.
Xu Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Yu Xian would not speak anything, but it was okay.
But the conversation that followed made Xu Yu want to block Yu Xian's mouth.
"I heard that my sister likes young and handsome guys." Yu Xian looked at Cen Nian with a smile on purpose, and he bent his lips and said, "How do you think of me?"
Cen Nian: "..."
She knew Yu Xian was joking, but when she said this, she always felt something was wrong.
Xu Yu looked question-marked, and even thought Yu Xian was crazy, so he said such words in front of Cen Nian, wouldn’t he seek death?
"He may have gotten up too early, so he was a little unconscious." Xu Yu tried to smooth things over.
Then he pulled Yu Xian aside and whispered: "What's wrong with you? Don't cause trouble for me!"
"It's okay, sister doesn't mind." Yu Xian looked at Cen Nian again, "Right, sister."
Cen Nian threatened lightly: "Yu Xian, if you joke like this again, I will go back now."
Yu Xian immediately surrendered: "Sister, we can't act for a while!"
Cen Nian sat down and deliberately ignored him.
Yu Xian was anxious and quickly walked to her and sat down, starting to apologize: "Sister, it's not right for me, I shouldn't be kidding."
Xu Yu was stunned when he saw this scene, "You... know each other?"
"I met by chance." Cen Nian interrupted Yu Xian's words, "Let's formally discuss cooperation and talk about your requirements."
When talking about work, Cen Nian did not take personal feelings into consideration and acted in an official manner.
***
Both sides communicated their mutual requirements and opinions well, fortunately, there were many areas where everyone agreed. Cen Nian didn't think about revising the script from the beginning, and Yu Xian didn't have any requirements in this regard.
"The movie will not be made public or promoted from filming to completion. This is also Director Xu's opinion." Cen Nian said, "Yu Xian, can you accept it?"
Every time her work is filmed, it always attracts a lot of speculation from the industry, and there are fans of various companies that are constantly harassed. Sometimes the shooting progress will be delayed, which is very unfavorable for shooting.
What's more, this time I was working with Yu Xian, so it's conceivable how shocking it would be if it was made public.
"I didn't like that kind of hype, and shooting quietly was exactly what I wanted." Yu Xian himself was deeply troubled by his illegitimate child, so he naturally liked this method.
Yu Xian said so, and Xu Yu, as an agent, had no refutation.
"Then the cooperation is pleasant." Cen Nian smiled and stretched out his hand.
Xu Yu was about to reach out to hold it, but he didn't expect that Yu Xian would slapped it away, and then he held it himself, "Sister, after talking about work, it's time for us to have a meal."
"I'll go find my assistant first. She is your fan. Maybe I'm embarrassed." Cen Nian looked at him and asked, "Is it okay to sign a photo?"
Yu Xian nodded obediently: "Of course."
After Cen Nian left, Xu Yu looked at him with confusion: "What's going on? You don't seem to be familiar with each other?"
"You will know when you go back." Yu Xian deliberately did not tell him.
Although Xu Yu was puzzled, Yu Xian said so, and he temporarily put his doubts back into his stomach.
Tong Tong successfully got a photo and autograph, and had a meal with Yu Xian. In her words, she is a successful fan.
"Sister Niannian, thank you!"
Cen Nian heard at least ten more thanks from Tong Tong today. She said helplessly: "If you thank you again, I will be angry."
Tong Tong immediately closed her mouth and drove quietly to Cen Nian back.
Xu Yu's car followed Cen Nian's car. The more he drove, the more he felt something was wrong. Because the routes of the two cars completely overlapped, he finally drove straight towards Dinghuwan, and then entered the community one by one.
"Sister Niannian, the car behind seems to be Yu Xian's car. What's going on?" Tong Tong was also surprised.
Cen Nian smiled calmly: "Because Yu Xian lives in the same building with me, and he is a neighbor."
Tong Tong almost didn't even hold the steering wheel firmly. Fortunately, she had just exercised her heart strong enough in the private room. She sighed: "What a happy thing is this."
Cen Nian guessed that she would react like this early in the morning, as for happiness...
She felt that it needed to be digested slowly.
Xu Yu from another car was much more shocked than Tong Tong when he learned the news, "You actually live on the same floor. Why didn't you tell me earlier if you have such a close relationship?"
"What did you say to you?" Yu Xian asked indifferently.
Xu Yu grabbed his hair: "Little ancestor, you have such a good opportunity, you must not have a good relationship with Cen Weng. Maybe the next work will be guaranteed."
